Its effect is worse in teenage mothers – who are still growing – and older mothers who are less efficient at supplying nutrients to their babies."This study is a further demonstration of the importance of good maternal health and diet."It supports the view that poor diets in pregnancy can alter development of fetal organs, in this case the brain, in ways that will have lifetime effects on offspring, potentially lowering IQ and predisposing to behavioral problems."
